STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS OF DEVELOPMENT OF BIOLFUELS PRODUCTION FROM AGROBIOMASS OF AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISES OF UKRAINE
TOKARCHUK Dina – Candidate of Economic Sciences, Associate Professor of the Department of the Administrative Management and Alternative Energy Resources, Vinnytsia National Agrarian University (21008, Vinnytsia, 3, Soniachna Str., е-mail: tokarchyk_dina@ukr.net).
The article substantiates that the agricultural sector of Ukraine has a significant bioenergy potential. The first component of this potential is agricultural crops: traditional (cereals, sugar beets, sunflowers, rapeseed, etc.), which can be used for the production of bioethanol, biodiesel and energy crops (willow, poplar, miscanthus), which are used for the production of solid biofuels or second generation biofuels. The second component is organic waste from crops and livestock, which is a potential raw material for the production of biogas and solid biofuels.
An algorithm for the development and implementation of a strategy for the development of biofuel production from the bioenergy potential of agrobiomass of agrarian enterprises has been offered with an emphasis on the obligation of its constant monitoring and correction to achieve the planned indicators. The expediency of using the SWOT-analysis methodology in the development of this strategy has been substantiated.
The strengths and weaknesses of agricultural enterprises have been analyzed from the point of view of bioenergy development. For this, there were assessed their profitability and efficiency, the dynamics of growing of agricultural crops that can be used for the production of biofuel, and the volume of organic waste generated. Among the main strengths are strong bioenergy potential, weaknesses are resistance to change and the reluctance of managers to take risks by investing a lot in biofuel production. Analysis of the external environment showed the presence of both favorable (cooperation with international financial organizations, an increase in demand for bioenergy raw materials) and unfavorable factors for the development of bioenergy potential (high cost of equipment for bio-production, unfavorable credit policy, etc.).
The combination of the strengths and weaknesses of the internal environment, as well as the opportunities and threats of the external environment of agricultural enterprises in bioenergy made it possible to identify four potential strategic directions for the development of using bioenergy potential of agrobiomass: organization of the production of all types of biofuels (liquid, solid, gaseous) by enterprises, energy autonomy; increasing of bioenergy potential in an intensive way, organizing the production of those types of biofuels for which bioenergy potential is the largest; building up bioenergy potential in an extensive way, selling bioenergy crops to Ukrainian biofuel producers; enterprises do not increase their bioenergy potential, they remain producers of only those agricultural crops for which there is a demand in Ukrainian and the world markets.
